ActionScript 3.0 :: Refer To Nested Button From DocumentClass?
Jul 17, 2009
I have navbar_mc on the main stage. Within navbar_mc is button1_btn How can i reference this button with an eventListener from the DocumentClass?I have the following in the document class:
this.navbar.button1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler);
but get the following error when i compile: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.also, there are many buttons within navbar_mc, how can i make an elegant switch statement function (in the DocumetnClass) for all of them. To reiterate, with an eventListener for each button, how do i reference the correct one from a single function, in this case clickHandler?

I have a movie Clip on my main timeline and with in that movie clip is a button. That button has a CLICK event that I want o go back and refer to a "frame" on the main time line. How would I go about doing that?
Here is what I thought I should do
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
WebSitesBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,WebDesignBtnClick);
function WebDesignBtnClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
_parent:gotoAndStop("Web Design");
}
"Web Design" is the Frame Label which I want to refer too
what I am missing or how I can properly refer to the main time line?

I had a movieclip which contained a button in it exported as "mc". Then I attach this movie clip onto the stage using: _root.attachMovie("mc", "link1", 1); But i couldn't find it with AS. I mean, how can i refer to the button inside the movieclip after I attach it onto the stage using attachMovie?

I have been at it for days now and don't know how to get this going. I have DocumentClass and I have a simple function which returns stage width. I now would like to call this function from othr class which exist within the same package as my DocumentClass. I am able to trace the stage width when I invoke stageWidth() function from the DocumentClassAs I to understand, if the function is public, and it is being accessed by a class that exist within the same package, I should be able to access the function withou any issues.nd If I declare the function as STATIC then it is global and can be accessed by classes from other packages what am I doing wrong,
Function that I have written:
public function stageWidth()
{

I'm new to AS3 and am starting to use OOP in flash. However I run into some problems with accessing movieclips from other classes. I am creating a DocumentClass (like Lee Brimelow showed in one of his tuts) and from that class I want to completely generate the movie using other classes and such. However I run into a problem when I need to access movieclip properties from other classes. Here's an example of what I have:
Code:
Select allpackage{
import flash.display.DisplayObject;
import flash.display.Stage;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import com.dreamline._root.*;
public class DocumentClass extends MovieClip

I have some movie clips in the library of a FLash file, which has a document class. The movie clips in the library are set up (via Linkage) to have a BaseClass. The document class creates containers for the movie clips, which are created by a timer. The base class has a click event that removes the movie clips. My problem is, how to reference the container that's created in the document class, when i want to do so from within the base class.

I have this main (document class) in a Flash project:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
[Code]....
Now: if I pass a reference (ref) of the main class to Other and I add clippo as you can see in the first case, I can reference the movieclip clippo from the main (getChildAt(0) is "clippo" from the main). But, is there any way to use the second method (no ref) and do the same from the main class? I can see clippo onstage when Other creates it but I can't understand where clippo "lives" into the DisplayList.

I've got a simple program that consist of a document class and a buttonTemplate constructor class. I need to call a function called updateText that should be in the document class, when someone clicks on a button. So that after each button is clicked, it updates some text in my document class. My event listeners for the buttons are in the buttonTemplate class. My question is, how do you call a function in the document class from a constructor class? Here is my simplified code below

I have this very simple ImageLoader class:[code]this doesn't work anymore, because of the presence of the stage movieclips "preloader" and "imageLoaderClip".Which is the most common way to make the things work? I thought to pass a reference to the ImageLoader class as a parameter (eg I pass the preloader and the movieclip that loads the images).

I have a movieclip ('A') which contains a button symbol with only a hit state (invisible button).
when you roll over this invisible button, an .flv starts playing and when you roll off, the .flv stops playing.
Now, i want to add a button above the invisible button (still within the movieclip 'A') so i can add a link. The problem is that this button's hit area will conflict with the invisible button.
in other words, rolling onto this new button will mean rolling off of the original invisible button and the .flv will stop playing (i want it to keep playing).
I'd like to use a conditional with hitTest to check if the mouse is over this second button when the .onRollOut is triggered on the first button OR just use hitTest to determine if i'm still within the bounds of the first, invisible button (it's the same dimensions as the clip containing the 2nd button)
the way i'm attempting it isn't correct or it'd be working i imagine:
Code:
function out()
{
if (! 2ndButton.hitTest( _root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, false))
{

I am working on a tool for use in our office which creates XML. At this point I am working on getting an error message to appear when the user enters incorrect data in one of the textfields. I have a MC which contains my error message as well as a button. The button will move the MC back off of the stage. Everything works up to the point where I click the nested button. I suspect there is a problem in referencing the parent MC from the button. Here is the code for the entire project. I am sure there are more than a few errors since I am relatively new to AS.

I am trying to design a menu system that pops up which I have just about managed. however nested in the menu movie clip are a number of other movie clips which I want to use as buttons but I am having problems getting the movie clips to load a swf once clicked. I tried putting a button in side the menu movie clip and it would not even recognize the mouse over which makes me think you can not nest buttons or movie clips in another movies clip?
Here is the code
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
import flash.events.Event;
menuMC.flowerB.onRelease = function() {
loadMovie("test.swf", 1999);

I am trying to get this drop-down menu to work, I've followed several video tutorials and have pieced this together, but I am FAR from REALLY knowing what I am doing...The trace function shows the NavBar_mc is working, but I don't understand how to get the eventListener to goToAnd Play a frame label on the main timeline. Similar problem with the drop down menu.To clarify: The AS that controls the glowFilter on the main buttons is on the main timeline (the GlowFilter part works, but not the navigation):
stop ();
var navBtnGlow:GlowFilter = new GlowFilter(0xffffcd, 0.5, 0, 10, 2, 1, true, false);
navBar_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, navOverF);
navBar_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, navOutF);

Sorry to pose this type of question yet again. I have been searching for the past 24 hours for a solution, and am losing the will to live. I am very new to AS 3.0 (and don't have much programming experience), so I guess that's a big part of the problem.
Here's the situation: I have a movie clip on the main timeline (frame 1) whose instance is called "Main_mc". Within Main_mc I had some buttons, each defined this way in the script:

I'm using AS3 timeline actions. I have a movie clip nested in another movie clip, which has five buttons. The code is on the parent movie clip's timeline. The buttons activate movie clips with tweens. I wonder why the buttons need to be clicked several times before I see the tween movie clips appear. Some times the movie doesn't even show up. Is it a script problem or something else?

I am sure I must be doing something very stupid but here goes:This is for a navigation bar.
- I have a main movie (mcMenu) on my stage which holds all the main buttons (btnHome, btnAbout, etc..).
- Inside mcMenu, when I roll over say btnAbout, the movie plays from 10 to 20th frames during which time a submenu fades into view.
- Inside this submenu, I have the sub-section buttons. It is these buttons that I am having problems with. Basically, I can't get them to respond to onRelease events.

I have 2 child movieclips nested into one working parent movieclip, then the parent movieclip is animated. The nested working parent movieclip should move to the side once a child movieclip is clicked. Currently, the parent is unaffected by clicking on a child movieclip. What gives?
Below is a layout of the movieclip:
Button List Box
| |
v v
Subparent(groups btn and list box)
|
v
Parent(animated)
I need the parent to animate once the child Button is clicked.
